I do think I thought it was the limit, pre-google. I just love the linen!
I miss Oz. He'd get it. He wouldn't say anything, but he'd get it.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I love the linen, too. I wish I had thought he was not talking about the linen.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That is an awesome vid.
To me, he is talking about the linen, and always will be.

Hee! That video is great. Only hopefully it will happen the other way around.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
LOVED the video. Loved loved loved.

I think this will be the linen song for me from now on.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
What cards are those?
Money. 6 companies effectively control US media. If an indy company appears and produces some kind of ground breaking online series, what will happen? The studios will purchase either the product, or the company which made it. The only real exceptions to that are technology companies which may or may not get involved which are financially strong - Google and Apple being the two prime examples. I don't think Apple would touch it with a barge pole because they're in bed with the studios for iTunes sake, and iTunes is a primary business unit of theirs. Google, on the other hand, are getting involved it appears.
I definitely think new media will change the face of entertainment media and distribution. I'm a company director of a new media company which deals with just that. I don't think the studios have all the power. The creative types, in fact, hold that. I think the studios definitely have the control of the current system, and I can absolutely fucking guarantee this: if any business starts to encroach on their area, they will gobble it up or shut it down. Very highly paid peoples jobs depend on it. They're gonna shit on everybody from up high who they think holds any kind of power to change anything.
This is why I believe NBC Universal and the like are currently fighting with Apple over iTunes. Those studios don't want Apple having any power. So they're taking control of their content, and setting up their own distribution systems (Hulu.com, for example). It's an attempt to shut Apple out of the market. Other example - Viacom suing Youtube for $1 billion, pretty much immediately after Google bought Youtube. What's happening with Quarterlife, the much buzzed about web series? NBC picked it up. Powerful sites and creative people involved. Controlled.

And the Tick! Harlan's being a little disingenuous. He doesn't have a mansion with a pool, but he does have gargoyles on his eaves and secret passages in his built-to-his-specs house.
